Disrupt poverty

Mobility Mentoring®

Mobility Mentoring® is the professional practice of partnering with individuals and families so they may acquire the resources, skills, and sustained life changes necessary to attain and preserve their economic independence.

Impacting Policy, Changing Lives

The Intergenerational Mobility Project

Made in collaboration with the Center on the Developing Child at Harvard University, this video profiles the Intergenerational Mobility Project and its use of a coaching framework to strengthen families’ ability to navigate the complexities of poverty. Drawing on parents’ desire to advocate for their children and be case managers of their own lives, mentors and families use the Bridge to Self-Sufficiency® to plan for the future. When parents can align and prioritize goals for their family’s stability, well-being, education, finances, and career, they build a solid foundation for their children’s future and move across the economic divide.
